Edge: The Death and Birth of an RPG Developer

Edge writes: "From the outside, Iron Lore Entertainment appeared to do everything right. The studio had the talent, the ideas and the ability to execute; qualities that culminated in the 2006 release of the PC role-playing game Titan Quest, a piece that earned Iron Lore a Game Developers Choice Award for best new studio.

But by February 19, 2008, Iron Lore was finished. The studio made a vague statement on its website saying that it was "unable to secure funding for its next project" and would disband.
